Football: Tuchel on his way to a prestigious position?

The ability to see Thomas Tuchel at the head of the England team making a lot of noise. According to the German channel TV WeltThe former coach of PSG, Chelsea and Bayern Munich would be in advanced talks with the FA to succeed Lee Carsley, interim coach since Gareth Southgate’s departure after Euro 2024. Although Tuchel has not managed a national team ever , his impressive career, especially his victory in the Champions League with Chelsea in 2021, gives him great credit.

So Tuchel could be the third foreign coach in history to lead the Three Lions, after Sven-Göran Eriksson and Fabio Capello. While Carsley suffered an embarrassing defeat against Greece (1-2) during the Nations League at Wembley, this poor performance led to discussions about the future of the position. According to Welt TV and other media, this issue could stop the arrival of Tuchel, whose more structured tactical approach could provide the stability that the team has had recently.

Tuchel’s style, characterized by his tactical flexibility and tight control of defensive levels, makes him a strong candidate for this prestigious position. However, Carsley remains in contention, although his recent decisions, such as fielding a team without a true striker, have raised doubts. With Tuchel in the balance, the FA will have to make an important decision for the future of the England team.
